I currently use Dish (Comcast is unavailable) and am moderately happy. But would like to bundle my interent with the TV programming. What I've read seems to indicate that the distance from some box determines the signal quality/thruput. Any way to determine what that distance is?

I suppose I could call Uverse, but my experience with CS type people is less than stellar. The Uverse web site does indicate my address "qualifies". But unless I can be assured of great quality...
